I had no precise idea or design in mind when I started my layout. I just wanted to use white cardstock for the background and beautiful Wild at Heart supplies. I pushed paper around on my page for a little while until I came up with this grid design featuring my photos and two cute Wild at Heart chipboard frames.

Next, I went through all the pretty Wild at Heart papers looking for a little something to spice up the white background a bit more. I came across the Bohemian paper and cut strips following the chevron pattern. I placed one strip at the top and another one at the bottom of the page. Just what I needed!

I matted the pics with patterned paper cards from the Patchwork cut apart sheet and adhered them with foam squares for dimension. I also backed the chipboard frames with the Luscious and Mariposa papers and then adorned them with pretty butterflies that I fussy cut from the Patchwork sheet.

For the title, I used word veneer words that I placed on the frames. I then got busy embellishing my page with pretty Wild at Heart embellies: fussy cut flowers from the Luscious paper, die cuts from the ephemera pack, stickers from the accessory stickers sheet and another lovely fussy cut butterfly.

Hi scrappy peeps!I hope your week is off to a great start! I have a new layout to share with you inspired by the Paper Issues Try It Tuesday challenge. This month, Amanda Baldwin asks us to use tape on a project in a creative way. For my page, I used the beautiful Oh My Heart line by Paige Evans and Pink Paislee, washi tape by My Mind's Eye and Glitz Design and a cute pic of my little one on the beach a couple of years back.

I picked the pretty blue ombré paper from the range for the background and decided to make a shining sun design using washi tape for the sunbeams and circles that I cut in several 6x6 Oh My Heart papers and layered on the top left hand corner of the page.

I matted the photo with another 6x6 Oh My Heart paper and adhered it in the center of my paper sun with foam squares to make it stand out a bit more. I placed a die cut under the pic for the title and added more embellies on and around the photo: a doily, fussy cut flowers and puffy stickers from the collection. I finished off my layout with some transparent sequins that I placed on the washi beams to add a bit of shine.

I went with blue and white for the background and backed a large strip from the Night Sky paper with the Starshine paper. How pretty is this dark blue? I love the way it nicely frames the page and gives it more depth!

I usually start a layout with a design in mind. This time, I wanted to create waves on my page to go with my photo. I drew and cut circles in several You Rock papers: Starshine, In Line, Stripped, Night Sky, Random and Plus One. I cut them again in half, folded them gently for dimension and placed them on the left hand side of the page.

Next, I matted the pic with the bright In Line and Galactic papers and adhered it in the center of my paper sea with foam squares. I really like how the black and white photo pops against the colorful You Rock papers!

For the title, I used a wood veneer word that I spiced up with a cute flair button and I placed it on the bottom right hand side of the page. I adorned the pic with a sticker from the accessory stickers sheet and a fussy cut star and I sprinkled a couple of word stickers on my paper waves. I finished off my layout by adding other lovely You Rock embellies near the photo and around the title: more fussy cut stars from the Starshine paper, shiny enamel shapes, wood veneer stars and a die cut from the ephemera pack that I tucked under the pic.

To echo this sweet spring photo, I decided to create a spiral with lots of butterflies on my layout. I started by drawing a spiral on the background paper from the Golden Days collection by Fancy Pants. I pierced holes following the pencil lines and then erased them. I handstitched the spiral using white thread and splattered some pink ink on the page.

I drew and cut the butterflies in patterned paper cards from the November and February swag bags, folded them gently and placed them on the spiral with foam squares. I then layered the pic on more paper cards at the bottom of the page.

For the title, I used a straw and a sticker from the February swag bag and I placed them near the photo. Last but not least, I sprinkled my page with pretty sequins from the November swag bag to add a bit of shine.

Hi!I hope you're having a lovely week so far! I'd like to share a new layout with you today featuring Chasing Dreams by Maggie Holmes & Crate Paper and a photo of my oldest daughter on the beach a few days ago. I played along with the Paper Issues July Scrap Soup challenge and used all the items on Mary Ann Jenkins's list: a 6x6 square, alphabet letters, 6 embellishments, a patterned paper background and fussy cutting.

To make the sun, I drew a circle on one side of the photo using a pan as a template and I cut it following the pencil lines. Then I handstitched the borders with white thread and placed it on the background with foam squares to make it pop.

For the sunbeams, I used banners from the ephemera pack as well as strips that I cut from the Delightful, Glimmer, Confetti, Lucky Dip and Flower Patch papers. I gently folded up the sides to add a little more dimension to my page and tucked them under the pic. I love how the colorful embellies and strips stand out against the black and white photo and background!

Hello!I'm already back with a new layout inspired by the Paper Issues July sketch. I used Lovely Day by Dear Lizzy & American Crafts as well as pics of my little one playing in a park a couple of years back.

I layered colorful patterned papers at the top of the page and placed the pics on the top. I also tucked beautiful fussy cut flowers under the layers, made a banner with die cuts from the ephemera pack and enamel dots and I adorned the pics with another pretty die cut and a cute wood button.

For the title, I used a chipboard sticker along with cute hearts that I placed under the biggest flower on the right hand side of the page. I added a patterned paper strip, a doily, two tags and another wood button at the bottom and finsihed off my layout with droplets of black ink.
